What is a 'GPT' Site?

GPT stands for "get-paid-to". Basically, there are websites that are free to join that pay you cash to complete short surveys and to sign up for trial memberships with online companies. So far I've not found an easier or faster way to make money online.

Let's talk about the free surveys. You complete free surveys (most take about 3 mins) and you can get paid anywhere from $.35 to $2.00 for completing it. Pretty simple. You can do very well by completing free surveys and offers ($200-$400 a month). I try to do as many free offers as I can. They're so simple and it really adds up.

You can really kick up your earnings by signing up for trial offers that require little or no money upfront. Some of they do require a valid credit or debit card number, but some do not. If you don't have a credit card you can use a prepaid gift card with a Visa logo. So for example, you sign up for a 7-day trial at Bargain Network. The trial costs $1 and for signing up you get paid $10. As long as you cancel the services prior to your trial deadline then your card is charged nothing else. If you do not cancel then you are basically agreeing to continue with the service and are giving the company permission to charge your card a fee... usually on a monthly basis but sometimes can be weekly or annually. If you feel uncomfortable using a credit/debit card online then get a prepaid gift card that can't be charged more than what you put on it.. so you don't have to worry about a company charging you for fees after you cancel.

So how does this work...you might be wondering. GPT programs make their money through advertisers. The advertisers pay the programs to recruit new members to try their services/products for a short period of time... hoping that they will remain a paying member after their trial period has ended. To make money.. you simple click on an offer that you find interesting and sign up for a trial membership. You are under no obligation to remain a member and you may simply cancel your membership before your trial period ends. There are hundreds of offers and new offers are added regularly.
